DCIH has the following promising things going for it:

• 3-3/4" scale
• A small scale that lends itself well to vehicles/playsets
• LARGE and very diverse character selection

Here are things going against it:

• Sculpts that are definitely not Mattel's best; they look dated(even Mattel's in-house sculpted Robin and Joker from DCSH 2004 or so looked better)
• Sorely lacking articulation(even the girls with new articulation lack any form of elbow joint)
• High price point given what we get. Are we really paying for what we get? We are getting less for what we pay for.

20 years ago, I could see this line taking on Super Powers and possibly giving it a run for it's money. Even the Toy Biz Marvel lines of the 90's and Kenner's Total Justice line.

The presentation and potential is all there, but I think fans support the premise behind DCIH and its potential, moreso than the actual product. Who doesn't want a high quality 3-3/4" DC line?
